About Us
As a leading provider of high-quality food and beverage ingredients, we work with farming communities across the globe to grow, source and produce ingredients that are good for consumers, farmers, and the world around us. We supply household food brands and manufacturers worldwide with cocoa, coffee, dairy, nuts and spices ingredients which are often grown on our own farms and estates and sourced from hundreds of thousands of farmers across ~50 countries. Along with our diverse manufacturing and innovation capabilities, this means we can provide ingredients for a range of products, from a plant-based latte mix to an almond based snack bar or a dairy-free ice cream. Making a positive impact on people and planet is a core component of our Purpose, to be the change for positive food and a healthy future. With a deep-rooted presence in the countries where our ingredients are grown, we are closer to farmers, enabling better quality, and more reliable, traceable, and transparent supply. And whoever we’re with, whatever we’re doing, we always make it real.
Overview of the role
Work with Procurement and planning teams to optimize the economic and operational performance of the plan-to-produce and source-to-pay processes across multiple food-ingredient manufacturing sites. The role combines demand and production planning, procurement analytics, cost analytics, and the digitalization of both functions — including applied AI and automation. It exists to close the value leakage that sits between planning, buying, and finance, and to engineer it out of the process permanently.
Key Responsibilities
